I’m encouraged by these town halls but I also remember very clearly how this happened in 2017 as well. Instead of responding to the complaints, they stopped doing them. www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpo...

If you're naked on the front porch and the neighbors can't see you, it's rural. If you're naked and the neighbors call the cops, it's suburban. If you're naked and the neighbors ignore you, it's urban. If you're naked on the front porch and your neighbor is also naked, it's Florida.

Modern-Day Peaceful Protest… TikTokers are hunting Cybertrucks—pulling up behind them and projecting anti-Elon Musk messages onto the tailgate. What’s genius: the driver has zero rear visibility & zero idea. The Cybertruck Hunters account launched a week ago and already dropped a dozen videos.

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

🚨🚨🚨 Join our DIGITAL RALLY now! The Republican war on health care is alive and well. Republicans have one goal in mind: rip away coverage for millions in order to provide tax breaks for their billionaire friends. Don't Cut My Medicaid.

Medicaid funds about 42% of all births in the U.S., giving newborns a fighting chance at a healthy life. Cutting Medicaid means putting the most vulnerable at risk before they even take their first breath. Don’t let MAGA cut my Medicaid. (medicaid.gov) Call Congress at 224-3121!
